Description

The stable range located approximately 30 metres west of Gunthwaite Hall barn is a Grade II* listed building, dated 1699 and built for Godfrey Bosvile III, who died in 1714. This stable range features coursed squared rubble with an asbestos sheet roof and has a rectangular plan with a wing at a right angle. It stands two storeys high and consists of four bays.

The building has a chamfered plinth and quoins, with a near-central entrance that has a quoined surround and a deep, chamfered lintel inscribed with 'G. B. (16)99'. There is a similar door to the right. The façade includes four double-chamfered cross windows and a continuous ground-floor drip-mould. On the first floor, there are four 2-light double-chamfered windows, and above the main door is a plaque featuring the Bosvile coat of arms, which is badly eroded. The left bay has a gabled roof with a 2-light double-chamfered window set between two drip-moulds at the apex. The gable features chamfered copings on cut kneelers and ball finials on short pedestals.

At the rear, there are new or altered ground-floor openings, along with four 2-light double-chamfered windows on the first floor. The left return has a cross window on the ground floor and a 3-light window on the first floor with a hoodmould. There is also a 2-light window at the gable apex between drip-moulds, similar to the front, with dovecote openings above and on each side. The wing at a right angle, now used as a milking parlour, has various door and window openings with square-cut surrounds.

Inside, the main range features six king-post trusses with struts braced to the ridge. The left truss has diagonal infill strutting, while one truss on the right is infilled and has 17th-century panelling below. There are remains of nesting boxes in the left bay, and the milking parlour is said to contain a cruck truss, as noted by N. W. Alcock in the Catalogue of Cruck Buildings (1973).
